Training
The Brocks train regularly at Canadian Forces ranges and training areas such as CFB Petawawa and CFB Kingston, as well as within Brockville, Prescott, and other local communities. Members of the unit are expected to train a minimum of one night a week and participate in one weekend excercise a month. Training consists of basic infantry soldier skills, individual battle task standards, and more advanced training such as urban operations, and live fire field exercises. The unit often trains with its sister unit, The Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders, as well as participating in Brigade level training exercises with 33 Canadian Brigade Group as part of the 33 Territorial Battalion Group formation, encompassing units from across 33 CBG.
